First edition, first printing with 1942 listed on the title page. About Fine with faint stain to rear cover, small bookseller ticket to front free endpaper, else a very sharp and bright copy, in a correct first printing dust jacket, Near Fine, unclipped, with edge wear, a medium-sized chip to the bottom edge of the rear panel, light staining and several tape repairs made to the blindside. A lovely copy of this scarce Caldecott winner.

Written and illustrated by Virginia Lee Burton, 'The Little House' is a classic children’s book that tells the story of a small house in the countryside that witnesses the gradual encroachment of a bustling city around it.
